BDDfire: Instant Ruby-Cucumber Framework with Docker, Gatling, Accessibility, REST API Testing Support

Installation

Assuming you got Ruby installed. You can run

$ gem install bddfire

or include it into the Gemfile

gem 'bddfire'

Usage

Instant Ruby Cucumber Framework

$ bddfire fire_cucumber

This will create 'cucumber' directory and one command will install Ruby Cucumber framework with all possibly supported tools in the 'cucumber' directory.

This will create all the directories and files to support following tools

• Capybara
• Selenium-Webdriver
• Poltergeist: PhantomJS based headless driver for capybara
• Docker support to execute scenarios inside docker containers
• Run scenarios in parallel 10 processes and rerun failed scenarios.
• Appium : Mobile test automation Framework
• API Testing : BDDfire uses RestClient to perform API testing
• Saucelabs : Cloud testing framework
• Browserstack : Cloud testing framework
• TestingBot : Cloud testing framework
• Relish : Living Documentation
• Yard : Cucumber documentation
• Rubocop : Ruby code review tool
• CI Support Script

Install & Run BDDfire framework

Install your skeleton framework with BDDfire

 $ bddfire fire_cucumber
 $ bddfire fire_load
 $ bddfire fire_accessibility

Now you should have your framework ready inside 'cucumber' directory. Just install predefine Gems or you can add your own Gems. You can see animated GIF above how it works.

 $ cd cucumber
 $ bundle install

Once installed, you can run cucumber with multiple capybara driver. Here is demo of running test with Poltergeist and FireFox Driver

BDDfire Pre-defined-steps

BDDfire allow us to use predefined steps so that we don't have to write more code while writing cucumber steps. BDDfire has following predefined steps which can be used anytime during your project.

Browser Based Pre-defined-steps

You can useBrowser based steps

Poltergeist Based Pre-defined-steps

You can use headless Poltergeist based headless Poltergeist based steps

Parallel Cucumber & Re-run Failed

You can run entire test suite in 10 different processes but you can increase number of processes. The reports are generated for each process. If any scenario failed it will re-run. It will use poltergeist by default but you can change in Rakefile

     $ bundle exec rake parallel_cucumber

Selenium Firefox

You can use selenium driver to run scenario in browser [firefox].

  $ bundle exec rake selenium

Headless Poletergeist

You can use PhantomJS based Capybara driver Poltergeist driver.

  $ bundle exec rake poltergeist

Chrome Driver

You can run your scenarios in Google Chrome

       $ bundle exec rake chrome

REST API Testing

You can run your scenarios in Google Chrome. Just tag your scenario/feature with @api and You can use inbuilt predefined API Steps API based

       $ bundle exec rake api

Cloud Testing Frameworks

Please enter your USERNAME and KEY in the env.rb file

     $ bundle exec rake sauce/browserstack/testingbot

Appium:

Run Appium server in the background.

 $ npm install
 $ ./node_modules/.bin/appium

OR

 $rake start_appium

Now run cucumber with appium. Make sure you updated env.rb file with capabilities you want to use for Android.

 $ bundle exec cucumber -p appium ADB_SERIAL=serial_number

Now run cucumber with appium iOS. Make sure you updated env.rb file with capabilities you want to use for iOS

 $ bundle exec cucumber -p appium

Cuke_sniffer

You can use cuke_sniffer to detect smells in your Cucumber. It will generate reports in the cuke_sniffer.html in the 'reports' directory.

  $ rake cuke_sniffer

Rubocop

You can use rubocop to detect ruby errors in your Ruby file

  $ rake rubocop

This will report all the offence in rubocop.

Docker

We can run our cucumber scenario inside Docker containers. Assuming you have Docker installed. Check your Docker installation before using.

  $ bundle exec rake docker

This will build Docker image 'bddfire-ci' and run cucumber scenarios inside container 'bddfire-ci'.

Gatling

You can use Gatling setup to execute load tests against your endpoints. Simply change 'load/user-files/simulation/SampleLoadTEST.scala' file and puts your URL to Test as base URL.

      $ cd load
      $ sh gatling_local.sh

This will run load tests against your url. You are free to record new simulations. Once finished there will be link to HTML report at the end.

There is CI integration to plug it with Jenkins.

Accessibility Testing : Axe

We can run accessibility checks on our web page using BDDfire. You have to pass URL as environment variable e.g

   $ cd accessibility
   $ bundle exec cucumber -r features URL="http://www.google.co.uk"

Accessibility related Pre-defined-steps

You can also use Accessibility steps

TODO

• Add more and more steps so that user won't need to write more code
• Add examples to show use of native app automation
  
• Integration with AWS Device Farm or BBC HiveCI
